80 days, dwarf — 'Dwarf Caitydid' is a rugose, regular leaf variety that produces lots of medium to large, smooth, oblate-shaped, yellow tomatoes with red swirls, and heavy red coloration in the flesh. The flavor is well balanced and delicious.
Developed by members of the "Dwarf Tomato Project" from a cross between 'New Big Dwarf' and 'Mortgage Lifter' (Pesta Strain) made by Patrina Nuske Small in 2007 and named "Pesty." 'Dwarf Caitydid' was selected and named by Craig LeHoullier after his daughter, Caitlin, in 2011.
Those involved with its development are Patrina Nuske Small, Craig LeHoullier, Amanda Fischer, Michael Volk, Doug Frank, Carol Knapp, Richard Watson, Shawn Conant, Simone Pennig, and Laurie Sutherland.
Introduced in 2016. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.
In an effort to keep this variety available to home gardeners, 'Dwarf Caitydid' has been released by "The Dwarf Tomato Project" (the breeder) to the public under the Open Source Seed Initiative (OSSI).
